Congratulations to our outstanding and dedicated volunteers!

 

2022 Volunteers of the Month




July Volunteer of the Month


Jim Tam
Vice President, Market Lead at Keystone Partners 

“Jim is a first-year volunteer both for DallasHR and the Career Support Committee.  In a very short time, he has organized and redefined the way we share job openings with our members.  He is also the first person to step up and volunteer whenever we have a need.  He is smart, fun to work with, and has an incredible attitude towards everything.  We are lucky to have him. “ – Krystal Yates, Career Support Director 

June Volunteer of the Month


Kris Gallant
HR Administrator
Unity Hunt 

“I nominated Kris Gallant for Volunteer of the Month for her ambition and the way she stepped up after our last meeting. After the committee decided on the theme of Denim & Diamonds for the HRSW Conference Closing Reception on Tuesday, Kris took the ideas that we discussed regarding the decorations and presented designs and a list of items required for them. She sent them to the director, director-elect, and staff liaison. With our approval, it was sent to the committee for further input. Everyone loved her designs and the supplies were ordered and most have already arrived. Her initiative and enthusiasm deserve to be recognized.” -Beth Grover, Attendee Experience Director

May Volunteer of the Month


Ryan Fridborg
Executive Vice President
IMA Financial Group

If you do not know Ryan; you should.  I have nicknamed him Mr. Congeniality based on his genuine nature and the way he goes out of his way to make sure everyone feels welcome at an event.  He is new to DallasHR and the area, but he has gone above and beyond to help the Member Engagement Committee with anything he is asked and more.  I am truly grateful to Ryan and his passion he has shared with DallasHR and our committee.  Thanks, Ryan, for your hard work and truly making a positive impact in Member Engagement. -Courtney DeWitt, Member Engagement Director-Elect
